products description :
For Samples For the quantitative determination of human visfatin concentrations in serum, plasma, urine, tissue homogenates. PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for visfatin has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any visfatin present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for visfatin is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of visfatin bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a protein that catalyzes the condensation of nicotinamide with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate to yield nicotinamide mononucleotide, one step in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. The protein belongs to the nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase (NAPRTase) family and is thought to be involved in many important biological processes, including metabolism, stress response and aging. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome 10. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
uniprot summary :
Function: Catalyzes the condensation of nicotinamide with 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate to yield nicotinamide mononucleotide, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of NAD. It is the rate limiting component in the mammalian NAD biosynthesis pathway. The secreted form behaves both as a cytokine with immunomodulating properties and an adipokine with anti-diabetic properties, it has no enzymatic activity, partly because of lack of activation by ATP, which has a low level in extracellular space and plasma. Plays a role in the modulation of circadian clock function.1 PublicationManual assertion based on experiment in:Ref.11. Catalytic activity: Nicotinamide D-ribonucleotide + diphosphate = nicotinamide + 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1-diphosphate. Enzyme regulation: Inhibited by FK866. FK866 competes for the same binding site as nicotinamide, but due to its very low dissociation rate, it is essentially an irreversible inhibitor.1 PublicationManual assertion based on experiment in:Ref.12
